Baby Converse Shoe Template?????

Newbie here, Ok I have spent hours trying to find posts on how to work with templates...can't find any? really? I must not be looking in the right place. I want to make a pair of converse shoes for a baby shower cake, I printed out the template from stellastarchild on plain paper, but how do I actually "do It"? Do i roll out the fondant/gumpaste and freehand it, but that cant be right? Do I trace it? If so, what do I put it on? something clear? Do I go to kinkos or something? help I feel so stupid but I just dont understand?

When I made them, I used fondant with tylose. I printed the pattern out on card stock (but paper would be fine) and cut out the pieces. I rolled out the fondant about 1/8" thick. I laid the pattern on the fondant and used an Exacto knife to cut out the pieces. I put the toe/front piece on first and put a small wad of cotton inside to hold the rounded shape. I just used water as glue. I added the other pieces from there.

That is exactly how I did it too...

It sounds more complicated than it really is, Use gumpaste or fondant with Tylose in it and allow it to dry a few days .

My neice still has the ones I made for her baby shower and her baby is now 1 year old!

Well it appears that the add attachment feature STILL isn't working... I was going to add some pics but if you go to StellaStarchild's post you can see some ther...

Ok thanks alot. Wow I was having a hard time finding edible glue, glad to hear I can just use water. Now to find the tylose. Never even heard of that before. Can I find it ina grocery store or craft store?
